I'd go with the less expensive one. Here's my logic... I have a thin nylon duffle bag with a basic handle system that I got when I was around 10 years old (I am 40 now). I have stuffed it full of everything from clothes, books, rocks, guns & ammo, groceries, even fish & game... I've thrown it in the trunk of cars, in the back of trucks, it's been on pontoon plane trips, been dropped, kicked, sat on, slept on etc... and it is still usable. When in this lifetime are you going to be in a situation where your bag puts you in a life or death situation ??? Order the bag and if's it bad quality send it back.
